I am 82 years and in my younger life i formed and ran a touring cycling club and during my cycling years pedled over 26,000 miles. I last rode a bike 10 years ago in Scotland along disused railway trackbeds. but it became to much so had to stop. You are an inspiration to all who view this. thankyou very much.

      I'm sixty six and I 'actually' thought I was doing something special because 'maybe' twice a week I ride twenty six miles on a paved bike trail. Still, I enjoy it. The trail was made from an old railway which was paved over. Plans are to lengthen the NY trail but I'm told no camping will be allowed.

First of all because it gives me hope, you are the living proof that tours and cruises are not the only option for retired people, second: you've linked two places of the world I love: Patagonia (where I traveled several times) and Portland (some of you came from there) a city I love and enjoyed, and finally because your adventure is like a tribute to friendship among you and with environment, human as well as natural. My regards from Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Watching your movie brought up many memories from riding the line in the late 1980ties from Esquel for the whole length including a three course meal in the diner and running out of coal to heat our coach. Also, an engine break-down let to many hours of delay. The strong but cold winds I could feel again ... I spend all stops outside on the ground trying to collect wood in order to keep a fire going in the coach's oven. And the sun-set looked just like in your movie.

    Some of my friends and I actually did this in Southern California decades ago in the 70s. Only ours were two ten speed bikes welded together and we rode on full size abandoned tracks. Eventually we powered the unit with a 5hp motor with a platform between the rails to ride on. It carried 2 to 4 people and we sat in lawn chairs while riding. I still have photos of this. This is the first time I have ever seen anyone else do anything like it.

      @@Shallcross That's what I tell my students. I have photos of us on the tracks in Southern California. We used to ride two sets of rails. One abandoned and one active. The active one was privately owned and we knew the track maintainer crew so we had the run schedule.

    What a wonderful adventure! If I didn't know better, I'd say you were in New Mexico where I live. The terrain, especially past El Maiten, is so similar, and the old adobe buildings look so familiar. The wind and storms are the same, too. However, I don't see gauchos tending their herds and flocks around here. Thank you so much for sharing with us. What wonderful memories you must have.

    Just fabulous to enjoy your bike trip of this wild Patagonia, with phenomenal landscape, open space, mountains, free-roaming cattle, sheep, nice local children & people!
    Very well done documentary.
    Thank you!

    Superb. I watched every minute. I would have jumped at the chance to do such an amazing adventure. I did not even know railbiking was a thing! I laughed at the suitcase until I saw it in action. As a lifelong backpacker, I would do it that way too. HD makes everything so much more relatable. Patagonia - what a place. Thank You.

    Super interesting....and something I'VE NEVER HEARD OF BEFORE! Hats off bigtime to all you guys for even trying to do that: Wow! I'm 63, had my R hip replaced a year ago; former mountain climber, distances runner, blah blah blah.....and I DON'T THINK I could do what you gentlemen have accomplished.
    VERY impressive.....BECAUSE of your ages. Everything gets harder physically, especially when you don't maintain it. You guys seem to have done so with flying colors.
